scrape taglib functionality 

           Summary: scrape taglib functionality

          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: Other

can someone advise on how i might send user-agent and referer headers on 
scrapes... 

by default, according to logs, the referer and user-agent headers are not sent, 
they show as "-" "-" in http-access.log, some sites don't serve content to 
blank user agents. 

i tried using proxomitron (a freeware proxy utility 
http://www.proxomitron.org/), to specify agent using scrapes provision for 
proxy and proxyport, but still blank referer and user-agent are sent??? this is 
baffling, because when i setup my browser to use proxomitron's proxy, the 
specified referer and agent appear in logs.

 
also, how might i lower the default 10-minute default before a rescrape?

One possibility to what you seem to be talking about is Stephen
Colebourne's JODA.Time.  http://www.joda.org I think.

Off Topic: recurring dates

[Timothy Kettering <ti...@mac.com>]

This really doesn't have anything to do with taglibs, but I figured I'd 
ask some developers - and this is the only jakarta list I lurk on right 
now.

One volunteer project I'm working on is exploring the option of 
incorporating support for recurring dates for events.  I've done some 
cursory looking around and it seems like that other than grappling with 
the Calendar classes, there aren't any general use libraries that 
facilitate the use of recurring dates.  Like passing in a date object, 
and some flags, and getting a date that occured 2 weeks later, or for a 
Tues/Thurs events, it'd return the next event, be it thursday, or next 
week tuesday.

I've been seriously thinking about writing a library if this doesn't 
exist because it seems like a good thing to write anyway and contribute 
to the open source community.  maybe something to go in 
jakarta-commons.  But I wanted to ask the list if anyone knew of 
existing libraries or open source solutions for this, and could point 
me in that direction.  Thanks for your time.
